2024 Jeep Renegade Gets Digital Cluster And New Infotainment System In Europe
Jeep is teaching its old dog new tricks as the Renegade has been equipped with modern displays and enhanced connectivity
The Jeep Renegade will celebrate its tenth anniversary next month, but Stellantis isn't ready to say goodbye. Quite the opposite as the company has announced a handful of updates for Europe.
The changes are largely focused on technology as the 2024 Renegade adopts a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster. It's joined by a new 10.1-inch infotainment system, which is 40% larger than its predecessor and has five times the processing power for "instant touch feedback, faster route calculations, and remarkably swift voice responses."
The modern display looks a little out of place, but it features over-the-air updates as well as wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Buyers will also find 4G connectivity and a host of connected features such as remote locking and unlocking of doors.
Additional changes are limited, but the 2024 Renegade boasts a new steering wheel and upgraded USB charging ports. The mid-level Summit trim gains new 18-inch alloy wheels, which "not only enhance its visual appeal but also improve its performance on the road." The Overland goes in a different direction as it gains a digital camera that "enhances safety," according to Jeep.

On the performance front, e-Hybrid and 4xe plug-in hybrids have optimized engine and battery calibrations that help to improve fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by up to 5%.
The 2024 Renegade is currently available to order and Jeep's European boss, Eric Laforge, said the model will "continue to be one of the protagonists in the B-SUV segment" thanks to a "new infotainment system with 5x faster processing, larger Full HD displays, and exceptional connectivity."
